Just joined this group and discovered why emails that I sent about
missing boxes were never answered. Glad it is a problem with the
site and not the placers! Any way there are a few boxes we tried to
find with no luck and I wanted to let the placers and everybody else
know they are missing:
Penobscot Expedition, Bangor Maine. We looked all over the rocks for
this one and finally had to give up. We looked under the pier, as
well as down stream a bit. We searched on 8/31/03.
Best Friends, Topsham, ME. Again lots of rocks but no box. We are
pretty sure we had the right location (TeamGreenDragon, if you are
reading this, is it up near the concrete wall?). We looked for this
box on 9/13/03.
Rings in Heaven, Bruswick, ME. We found the spot, even though we
were forwarned that it was missing. Sure enough, no box. I had seen
a post that it was replaced, but either we missed it, or it is
missing again. I hope we just missed it! Searched on 9/13/03
All and all, we have found many boxes and many previously unknown
parks and hikes that have truely been amazing for all of us. Thanks
to all for leading us to these little known gems throughout the state.

Well, I can't speak for the other boxes, but I believe that the
caretaker of the Rings in Heaven box confirmed that it was missing and I
don't believe it has been replaced yet. Are you from Maine or just
passing through?

-Hi.. Yes indeed.. Rings in Heaven has not yet been replaced. I'm
afraid to put it in the same spot without a proper waiting period.
When I finally do replace it.. I will post to the clue site.
As far as Best Friends.. sounds like you probably weren't looking in
the right place. It took me HOURS and two trips to find that darn
box.... and it's such a small area! My sister ultimately found it
for me.. grr!

Thanks for the replies all!
Nautilus: we are indeed from Maine, and will check the vheck the Best
Friends box again once TeamGreenDragon confirms it is their.
TeamGreen Dragon: Thanks for taking a look. Hope it was just us and
that box is still there!
Kstar: Sorry to have missed the Rings in Heaven box and will wait to
see when you replace it then try again.
Phyto: We will be looking for your boxes soon. The next trip to
Bangor in a couple of weeks. Usually we spend a day during the
weekend just for letterboxes.
Heading to the Freehold area this weekend to search around the Wolf
Neck Park area. Wish us luck! (with boxes and weather!)

Just curious where you are from -we wouldn't mind knowing some other
letterboxers nearby (we're in Sanford). Phyto and Isosceles got us
addicted and then moved up to Bangor and left us all alone down here!

We also were thinking we might head up towards Freeport area this
weekend if the weather holds, so perhaps we will meet you on the trails!
